This group was simply incredible. I have this whole set on two CDs and nearly all the performances are definitive. I'm talking "Cell Block F", ESPECIALLY "Sue's Changes", and "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat." Only "Devil Blues" fails to outdo an incredible studio version and this song has a rendition that competes with it because it was done by Mingus's legendary 1964 Sextet. And that's because Eric Dolphy was the greatest jazz musician who ever walked the face of the earth.
Yes he lived hard. He did time for heroin possession. I know from experience that its hard to keep your mind and body healthy when playing for the party crowds, especially on the road in the 70's
@@TooManyEditsProductions Exactly. Listen to and capture the spirit. Playing this note for note would be a fool's errand, and will get you nowhere - unless you're Don Pullen
Great line-up, I went to concerts by all of these guys back in the 1970's. Brilliant!, thanks for posting. I wish that George Adams was singing this ! :)
Да! Рыжий Джерри просто бесподобен. Мой респект соавтору т.н.стиля Западного побережья (West Coast Jazz Style)... Спасибо блогеру за историческую память о великих джазменах
На мой взгляд Рыжий Джерри (Маллиган) был самым выдающимся баритоном в истории джаза XX века; тема "Езжайте поездом класса А", посвященная открытию новой ветки метро в Нью Йорке в 1939г. тому подтверждение. Спасибо за память о гиганте джаза...

Pepper Adams was a great player. I met him a few years back in a club called Gulliver's in W. Patterson NJ. He told me some cool stories about his early career. We first heard Pepper on some older Mingus sessions. There are so many great players it's up to each of us to decide who's best to ourselves.

I’m not sure if I understood your question correctly, but essentially both the soloists and the accompanying musicians (the background) are improvising.
